Andriy Shevchenko will quit Chelsea by the end of the month because the London side cannot guarantee him regular first-team football, Chelsea coach Carlo Ancelotti said on Friday.
The Ukraine striker and former European Footballer of the Year, who turns 33 on Saturday, has been linked with a return to former club Dynamo Kiev but no deal had been struck with any club yet, Ancelotti said, Reuters reported.
“Shevchenko will decide to go play for another team,“ said the Italian, who coached the Ukraine captain last season at AC Milan where the striker was on loan from Chelsea.
“He will take this decision; it is not our problem to choose the team right for him,“ Ancelotti said after a training session for Saturday’s Premier League game against promoted Burnley at Stamford Bridge.
“I spoke with Shevchenko and he would like to play with continuity here. For me it is difficult to give him this possibility and I think that he has taken the right decision.“
The Ukraine captain was in Kiev on Friday to talk to his former club Dynamo, local media reported.
“I’ve said it many times it was my dream to bring Andriy,“ Dynamo president Ihor Surkis was quoted as saying by the Segodnya newspaper. “There’s a good chance that he will join us but nothing has been agreed just yet.“
